Front End Web Developer

Halifax, Nova Scotia, CanadaFull-time

Senior Front End Web Developer (Angular & React)

From the moment you began learning code and experimenting with technologies, you aspired to one day work on industry-leading websites using cutting-edge tools. Everything you’ve done up until this point has been to reach that goal. Whether it’s a large website or small, you don’t shy away from the opportunity to create engaging, unforgettable solutions. You’re the first to know about and test new trends and technologies because nothing excites you as much as this ever-changing digital world we live in. You’re a strong team player but are also able to work independently - taking a project from concept through execution, while ensuring top quality every step of the way. You use your strong communication skills and equally as strong technical experience to convert designs and specifications into one of a kind interactive experiences.

Collaboration is the name of the game in our office which leads to daily cross-discipline idea generation. As a Senior Front End Web Developer, you’ll be part of a mighty and quickly growing team of designers, animators, and developers. Together, we are inventing innovative, captivating interactive experiences and changing the way people engage with technology (while having fun along the way, of course). Want to join our team?
